Get a great bod even without the gym with Gym Tuck

If you don’t have a budget for gym but want to get fit, there is an app ready to help you out. Celebrity trainer and fitness entrepreneur Joshua Lipsey has a new fitness app called Gym Tuck. The app has over 500+ tucks (fitness exercises) to choose from. There will be beginner and advanced descriptions as well as demonstration video from Joshua Lipsey in the app. You can also track your stats on the Gym Tuck graph and see which ones you can do better and which ones you enjoy doing.

But what sets this app apart is a method Lipsey calls BOYTAM or “Bet on yourself to achieve more.” This lets you bet on how many or how long you can hold a particular tuck for. This sort of starts an internal competition to help you overcome and even surpass your threshold. The app is available for free download on the iTunes App Store.
